To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, AUGUST Prnrrnn, a

Ulm a. D., in the Kingdom of Wiirtemberg, Empire of Germany, have invented certain new and'useful Improvements in Processes of Making Diabetic Bread; and I do hereby exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention has for its object an im proved process for making bread of gluten flour, that is to say so-called diabetic bread. For making this bread hydrogen peroxid is employed asv aerating or rising agent.

The bread hitherto made from gluten flour with yeast has the disadvantage that such bread possesses an extremely unpleasant flavor of gluten which renders its consumption difficult and makes the bread disliked, in spite of its excellent properties from a health point of view. Now in orderto avoid this disadvantage, Joy the present invention hydrogen peroxid is employed in such a way that the gluten flavor is entirely removed. A, further advantage in the use of hydrogen peroxid consists in insuring that the bread be thoroughly aerated, which as is well known is of great importance in diabetic bread, while other. chemical products such as bakin powder, ammonia and the llke produce a most no aeration or IlSlIlg of the luten bread. Finally, gluten bread to whic hydrogen peroxid is added has a strikingly whlte color.

v The improved process is carried out in the following way :In making the gluten dough hydrogen peroxid is added thereto. Whom-the dough is vfinished the formation of the same into separateloaves is immediately commenced and these latter when finished may be immediatelyplaced in the oven, as according to the improved process the rising or aeration only takes plaee in the oven by a great generation of gas, in contrast to ordinary kinds of bread in which hydrogen peroxid can only operate to efi'ect a risingof the dough, but not of the loaves in the oven. i I

I declare that what I claim is The process of making diabetic .bread from gluten flour, consisting'in adding hydrogen peroxid to the dou h, forming the dough Into loaves, and en baking the' loaves, whereby the'baking process insures risingand relatively great aeration of the loaves and the elimination of the gluten flavor therefrom.

In testimony whereof I afiix my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
